This program uses the Course 2 curriculum on Code Studio at Code.org and requires no prior programming experience. During a six-week session, students learn about sequence, loops, debugging, conditionals, events, and functions (Course 3). In each class, students work collaboratively on an “unplugged” activity, without the use of devices, and then complete a self-guided tutorial using blockly on the code.org site for that day’s topic.

This project began with funding from ILEAD USA - Wisconsin in 2015. ILEAD USA-Wisconsin is part of the ILEAD USA grant made possible through a Laura Bush 21st Century Librarian Program grant from IMLS.
